Defending Against Prompt Injection
Detecting and Removing Malicious Instructions in LLMs
This research evaluates methods to detect and remove indirect prompt injection attacks that manipulate large language models by inserting malicious instructions.
- Analyzes effectiveness of current detection mechanisms against sophisticated prompt injection attacks
- Identifies vulnerabilities in existing detection systems
- Proposes improved methods for removing malicious instructions while preserving legitimate content
- Demonstrates practical defense strategies for real-world LLM applications
As LLMs become more integrated into critical systems, these security measures are essential for preventing attackers from exploiting instruction-following capabilities to execute unauthorized commands.
